Being able to run digital twins helps the team to develop software , toolsets and approaches which are key to performance improvement . Lambert sees digital engineering as the foundation for technical development at Jaguar TCS Racing , which allows them to move beyond limitations of the physical domain and accelerate learning across all activities .
These systems will continue to be important for the team , especially as both digital technology and championship regulations evolve , just as they have for the Gen3 era , and the engineering challenge grows in complexity .
“ Each time we make a step forward in performance , whether that be through engineered systems , operational efficiency or race management , it all has digital engineering at the foundation ,” Lambert concludes . “ Leveraging digital engineering and the concept of digital twins allows us to iterate designs or processes without the constraints of physical deployment , and in certain cases run these iterations in parallel .”
